I have many happy, funny memories of Sylvia growing up. I wish I had known she had moved back to Indy as I usually visit once a year. I was just there 5 weeks ago. I would have liked to seen her again. Amazingly, she looks the same as when I saw her last when she was 19 yrs old! We lost touch when she moved to Iowa. I still have a picture of her she had sent me from Iowa.
I remember thinking her son Danny was the cutest little boy I had ever seen. Sylvia had a big heart. She was the first kid to welcome me when we moved to that neighborhood, and we were in the same 4th grade class. I remember the whole Le Master clan. 3 grandkids! She was blessed, & I bet she was a fun bartender! I am sure she had many friends and we all miss her.

We Loved Her so!!
Bill Murnan says
From her love of American Indian art, to her favorite Pooh character, eeyore the donkey, there was always something of the dreamer and little girl in Sylvia. But her warmth toward other people and her open heart endeared her to everyone she met. We will, all of us, miss her deeply. She is truly in a better place, free of care and worry forever. May God bless her family and grant them peace.
